Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions.
In the future, cities may see flying vehicles, mega bridges, and underground space. Those cities will
be controlled by the Internet and the development of technologies. Technology will also be used to create
a new quality of life in well-planned developments.
Transportation through tunnels will be more popular. Technology is much faster and cheaper today,
so the city of the future will see more solutions, such as an underground network of tunnels that could
ship 600 million packages a year. Some cities are developing the above-ground tunnel travel system in
which passengers and cargo could be transported in shorter time.
The bridge of the future will do more than connect two points. An exciting example is that a
skybridge will offer everything from pedestrian and bike lanes as well as services for people on it. Future
cities will see skybridges as a large area with houses, offices, and restaurants.
The streets of the future city are smart. One good example is streetlights that react to what's going on
around them. For example, if a crowd is leaving a stadium at night, the lamps may brighten to light the
way or even warn a nearby ambulance.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions.
The costs and benefits of global warming will vary greatly from area to area. For moderate climate
change, the balance can be difficult to assess. But the larger the change in climate, the more negative the
consequences will become. Global warming will probably make life harder, not easier, for most people
This is mainly because we have already built enormous infrastructure based on the climate we now have.
People in some temperate zones may benefit from milder winters, more abundant rainfall, and expanding
crop production zones. But people in other areas will suffer from increased heat waves, coastal erosion,
rising sea , more erratic rainfall, and droughts.
The crops, natural vegetation, and domesticated and wild animals (including seafood) that sustain people
in a given area may be unable to adapt to local or regional changes in climate. The ranges of diseases and
insect pests that are limited by temperature may expand, if other environmental conditions are also
favourable.
In its summary report on the impacts of climate change, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
stated, "Taken as a whole, the range of published evidence indicates that the net damage costs of climate
change are likely to be significant and to increase over time.”
